Jack might finally get off his ass and do something. Maybe.
Very interesting, hopefully Facebook is the first domino to sweep changes on other social media. I would hope that Twitter would acutally enforce their fucking rules regardless of the user but this is a step.
A wonderful documentary about the things that tended to kill homeowners in the 1950s.
Wow.

I can’t get enough of Boston Dynamic’s robots! They’re like creepy Ostriches!
Turns out a Skrillex song can prevent mosquito attacks.
They just needed time for the algorhythmic timeline to bring them the news stories about racism being bad.

I weren’t ready for popup books to be anime.
I watched this yesterday. What shocked me the most is that Mario 3 is clearly an amazing bit of programming, getting all that game out of the little old NES, even with a superior chip in the cartridge. Clearly they knew how to code. They came up with a pretty elegant system of sound effects coming in and overriding each other and such. Yet, they still messed up and had to put on some duct tape, and that is what ended up getting released.
It would be cool if instead of making the usual ROMHacks that totally remix the game, someone made some that simply fixed the game as is. Like, if the Internet existed in 1990, what patch would have Nintendo released for Mario 3 to fix it up? Just patch all the old games to remove glitches and softlocks, improve performance, etc. Not an HD remix, stay within the limitations of the NES, just fixes.
